Destiny Koi, I'm cheating after rebirth

Chapter 58: Bamboo Tube Mung Bean Soup

Gu Qingzhi was overjoyed. Although she could do it, she had not yet found a bright future. It was great that her mother was willing to help.

Otherwise, it would probably take a while for her to make clothes for her brother. After all, she has too many things on her hands right now.

Alas, if I had known earlier that day, I should have bought two sets of ready-made clothes for my brother, even though she didn’t like any of those styles.

Now this is just right.

After dinner, Gu Qingzhi picked up her tools, carried a small backpack and followed Gu Wangshi up the mountain.

On the way, the villagers in Sheng Tang were all surprised to see Gu Wangshi taking Gu Qingzhi up the mountain.

Everyone in the village knew that Gu Wangshi was good at embroidery. Her hands were so precious that they were used to twist embroidery needles. She didn't have to go up the mountain or down the field to work.

Gu Wangshi had an elegant temperament and was incompatible with the farmers in the village. Her daughter was equally pampered. She was well fed and well dressed. She was already eleven years old, which was considered a half-grown child in the village, but she had never been seen working in the fields. She was raised like the daughter of those wealthy families in the county and was dressed like the wealthy families in the county.

The villagers all agreed that the mother and daughter went to the mountains to play.

That's not a working person!

Gu Qingzhi followed her memory and walked to the place where she picked grapes the day before yesterday. From a distance, she saw a tall and thin figure busy at work.

She was delighted and shouted happily, "Brother, brother."

Gu Yan was busy picking fruits when he seemed to hear a familiar young lady's voice in a trance. He smiled bitterly, thinking that he had really lost his mind and was even hallucinating.

He continued to work hard.

The little girl was unhappy. Why was her brother ignoring her? She walked forward angrily and shouted, "Brother!"

The voice was so close that Gu Yan came back to his senses. He turned around and saw Gu Wang and her daughter.

He was extremely surprised to see the two people standing there. Why would Second Aunt come? And his sister...

In the morning, he saw that his sister's door was closed. He thought that although his sister had tried hard to follow him up and down these days, she had been pampered before and had never experienced such hard things. He did not have the heart to call her. He thought of letting her rest for half a day, and then taking her if she wanted to go when they went to the county town. Why did she come up the mountain at this time?

I also brought my second aunt.

He had a lot on his mind, but he crossed his arms and saluted without showing any emotion.

"Second Aunt, dear."

Gu Wangshi felt a little uncomfortable. She had never worked in the mountains before, and now she didn't know where to start here. She was extremely embarrassed. "Qingqing said she wanted to go up the mountain when she woke up. I was worried about her being alone, so I sent her up. The family still needs someone to look after them, so I'll leave her to you. I'll go back first."

Gu Qingzhi suddenly remembered that there were still a pile of mountain products at home, and she really had to leave someone behind, so she quickly said to Gu Wangshi, "Mother, you must be careful when you go down the mountain, and Qingqing must also work hard." After saying that, she quickly smiled obediently, and her eyes indicated that she should not worry.

After hearing this, Mrs. Gu Wang couldn't help but feel angry and amused. This guy, never mind. She had been doing fine with her nephew these days, so she had nothing to worry about. It was rare for her to be so persistent in something, so she didn't want to discourage her enthusiasm, so she just left it at that for now.

After Gu Wangshi left, Gu Qingzhi took over Gu Yan's position, and Gu Yan freed his hands to pick some more persimmons.

"Oh, my dear, just pick this basket of grapes and that's all. I'll go over there and pick two more baskets of persimmons."

Gu Qingzhi blinked her eyes, puzzled, "Brother, why are there so many wild grapes here?"

Shouldn't we pick as many as possible?

Gu Yan patiently explained, "We picked about 500 kilograms yesterday, and with this basket, it's 600 kilograms. I guess Manager Zheng may not be able to eat so much at once. Just pick these."

After explaining, he picked up the basket and left. Before leaving, he repeatedly told her to call him if she had any problems. The location he chose was rarely passed by, so even Shizilin could hear him if he called out.

Gu Qingzhi nodded and gave repeated assurances before Gu Yan left with peace of mind.

After putting down the small backpack, Gu Qingzhi suddenly saw the bamboo tube inside. It contained the mung bean soup that Gu Wangshi had made early in the morning. Drinking it in this weather was the best way to cool down.

She quickly ran towards Gu Yan, "Brother, brother."

Gu Yan, who had walked a long way, clearly heard his sister's cry. He turned around and saw the little man running towards him in a hurry. He quickly ran back, "Qingqing, what's wrong?"

Gu Qingzhi ran to him, held her waist and shook her head, then quickly handed him the bamboo tube, panting and saying, "Brother, brother, I forgot to give it to you just now. This is mung bean water. You, you drink some to cool off."

Mung bean water is a must-have for clearing away heat and relieving summer heat.

Gu Yan sighed, thinking something had happened, "It's just a bamboo tube, no need to be so nervous."

Gu Qingzhi shook her head stubbornly, "Brother, you should drink more. The weather is still so hot. Drinking more water is good for your health."

Gu Yan laughed, he reached out and rubbed her hair, "Okay, brother will listen to Qingqing." After that, he took the bamboo tube, opened the lid and took a sip.

To be honest, he got up in the middle of the night and rushed to Xizi Mountain. He went back and forth twice before he carried all the mountain products picked yesterday to the foot of the mountain and hid them. He then made another trip to put all the fish caught yesterday into wooden barrels and took them home.

After finishing everything, I rushed here to pick wild persimmons. I didn't feel any fatigue before because of all the running back and forth, but as soon as I relaxed, I felt sore all over and very tired.

As soon as he took the first sip, his eyes lit up. There was sugar in it! It was very sweet.

Then he drank several more mouthfuls in succession. The slightly cool mung bean syrup went down his throat into his stomach, instantly sweeping away his fatigue, as if his whole body was full of strength again.

He looked at the bamboo tube several times and always felt that the mung bean water was much sweeter than the ones he had drunk before. Perhaps it was because he had not drunk any water since this morning?

Thinking of this, he took a few more sips.

Gu Qingzhi watched him finish drinking the mung bean water in the bamboo tube and carefully observed his expression. When she saw that her brother looked much better after drinking it, she knew that the mung bean water had taken effect and she felt much more relieved.

It was worth it that she put a lot more sugar in it.

When she saw her brother looking tired just now, she knew that he must have gotten up early in the morning to transport mountain products. Xizi Mountain is quite far from Shengtangli, and her brother must be very tired running back and forth. Now that her brother has drunk mung bean water, he can relieve his fatigue a little. Now she feels a little more at ease.

Alas, when will her brother change his workaholic attitude? There is no other way, she can only take more care of him.

By the way, she made a note in her mind that she would also start making those small snacks that could replenish her energy as soon as possible, so that she could conveniently replenish her energy anytime and anywhere.
